Setup accessories

Accessories to finish your setup - cables, stands, keycaps and the small upgrades that make a desk feel complete.

Buying guide

The cheap upgrades that change the most

Accessories have a better return per pound than almost anything else on a desk, because they fix friction rather than add features. New mouse skates restore the glide on a mouse that has started to drag. A coiled or gold-plated cable removes the tug that pulls a wired mouse off target. A headset stand gets a headset off the desk so it stops competing for space with your mouse. None of these is exciting, and all of them are noticeable every single day.

Mouse skates are the first thing to replace

The feet on the bottom of a mouse are a wear part, and worn feet are the usual reason an older mouse feels sticky or inconsistent. Replacing them takes a minute: peel the old ones off, clean the residue with a little isopropyl alcohol so the new adhesive grips, then press the replacements on and let them settle before playing. On a glass or hard pad this matters even more, because cheap stock plastic drags and scratches where PTFE glides.

Cables: coiled, paracord and why they exist

A stiff rubber cable fights you - it catches on the desk edge and pulls the mouse as you aim, which is exactly the inconsistency you are trying to remove. A soft paracord cable weighs less and flexes freely, so it barely registers. A coiled cable takes a different approach: it runs the slack vertically, usually into a bungee or a raised anchor, so nothing drags along the desk at all. For a keyboard, a coiled cable is largely cosmetic, and there is nothing wrong with buying it for that reason.

Cleaning is maintenance, not vanity

Skin oil and dust are what make a mouse pad feel slow and keycaps feel greasy, so cleaning genuinely restores performance rather than just appearance. A screen cleaner and microfibre cloth handle displays without the streaking that household glass cleaner leaves, and neither should ever be sprayed directly onto a panel. A cleaning kit with brushes and picks reaches between keycaps, which is where most of the debris that causes a sticky key actually sits.

Key terms, explained
Mouse skates
The replaceable feet on the underside of a mouse, usually PTFE. They are a wear part, and swapping them is the cheapest way to make an older mouse feel new again.
Paracord cable
A lightweight, very flexible braided cable. It removes most of the drag and tug of a stiff rubber cable, which is what makes a wired mouse feel closer to a wireless one.
Coiled cable
A cable with a sprung section that takes up slack vertically instead of along the desk. Practical on a mouse when paired with a bungee, and largely decorative on a keyboard.
Mouse bungee
A weighted arm that holds a mouse cable above the desk, so the cable cannot catch or drag during a fast movement. It is the accessory that makes a wired mouse behave predictably.
Isopropyl alcohol
The solvent used to lift old adhesive residue before fitting new mouse skates, and to clean contacts safely. It evaporates without leaving a film, which is why water and household cleaners are not substitutes.
Microfibre cloth
A tight-weave cloth that lifts dust and oil rather than pushing it around. The correct tool for a screen, where paper towel scratches coatings and leaves lint.
Headset stand
A raised hook that holds a headset off the desk. It frees mouse space, keeps the headband from deforming against a hard surface, and stops the cable coiling under everything else.
Gold-plated connector
A plug with a thin gold layer over the contact. Gold resists corrosion, so the connection stays reliable over years of plugging and unplugging - it does not improve the signal itself.
Keycap puller
A wire or ring tool that lifts keycaps without bending the switch stem. Necessary for cleaning under the caps and for changing keycaps without damaging the board.
FAQ
How do I replace my mouse skates?

Peel the old feet off, then clean the residue with a little isopropyl alcohol so the new adhesive can grip properly. Press the replacements into place and give them a few minutes to settle before you play. The whole job takes about a minute and it is the cheapest way to fix a mouse that has started to drag.

How do I know when my mouse feet need replacing?

The glide becomes uneven - smooth in some directions and sticky in others - or you can see the PTFE worn thin at the edges with the plastic base showing through. Once the base is exposed it will start marking your pad, so replace them at that point rather than waiting.

Is a paracord cable actually better than a normal one?

Yes, noticeably, for a wired mouse. A stiff rubber cable catches on the desk and pulls the mouse as you move, which introduces exactly the inconsistency you want to remove. A paracord cable is lighter and flexes freely, so it barely resists at all. Paired with a bungee it comes very close to wireless in feel.

Do I need a mouse bungee?

Only if you use a wired mouse. It holds the cable up and away from the desk so it cannot snag mid-flick, which is the main remaining disadvantage of playing wired. If your mouse is wireless, it does nothing for you.

Are coiled cables just for looks?

On a keyboard, mostly yes - and that is a perfectly good reason to buy one. On a mouse a coiled cable is genuinely functional, because it routes slack vertically instead of dragging it across the desk. Judge it by which device you are buying it for.

How should I clean my monitor?

Use a dedicated screen cleaner with a microfibre cloth, spraying the cloth rather than the panel so liquid cannot run into the bezel. Never use household glass cleaner, since the ammonia in it attacks anti-glare coatings, and never use paper towel, which scratches and leaves lint.

How do I clean between my keycaps?

Pull the caps off with a keycap puller, brush the debris out of the plate, then wash the caps in warm water with a little mild soap and dry them fully before refitting. Use the puller rather than fingers or a screwdriver - it lifts straight up without bending the switch stem.

Does a gold-plated connector improve sound or performance?

Not directly. Gold resists corrosion, so the contact stays reliable after years of plugging and unplugging, which matters most for a cable you connect and disconnect often. It does not change the signal travelling through it.

What warranty and delivery do I get on accessories?
